[pgsql-pkg-yum] Possible bug for pam auth in at least 9.6 and 10 rpms on CentOS 7 - Mailing list pgsql-pkg-yum

When installing postgresql-server package, it puts a file in /etc/pam.d/
called postgresql%{majorversion}.

Postgres source says this (src/backend/libpq/auth.c):
#define PGSQL_PAM_SERVICE "postgresql"  /* Service name passed to PAM */

That creates the need to create a new file named /etc/pam.d/postgresql
to make pam auth work for me.

I've tested this with both 9.6 and 10 beta on CentOS 7 latest.
